Thanks for the summary, Annoying, well written. :)

I'm still waiting for Writer. :p

I'll try to get in contact with Mow this week and hopefully setup something for Saturday. I'll let you guys know.

I vote that for the first week after we have the server up and stable w/ SmashCAP on it, we make things a SmashCAP battle.

I would have fun trying UU.

I think it would be relatively fun for me to try to figure out, personally. :)

aka

when it's UU week vote for me (and obviously silentverse) =D

I regret to inform you that I have tried and tried and tried to write this dang thing, but I just can't do it. I'm sorry that I waited until two other BoTWs have gotten over with and everything else before finally telling you this, but I honestly CANNOT write this thing. I don't even know why I can't. It just...doesn't work with me or something. It doesn't compute whenever I go to write it. I even have the ****ing battle right in front of me, with every bit of conceivable information that I would need to write it, but I seriously just can't. I get a case of Writer's block. So I'm sorry, but I'll have to take myself off the role of BoTW 1 summary writer.

I could write myself out of a ****ing nuclear holocaust if I were to ever need to do so, but I couldn't write a summary of a Pokemon battle.

Also, I guess this is as good a post as any. This post will probably be even better for what I'm about to say, actually, considering the above content. I'm taking a hiatus from the PC/SWF for a while. Not sure how long 'a while' is, but I essentially have decided that I need to mix up my life a bit. Sooo...I'm shifting what I used to do in my routine and am doing other things. I'll still play Pokemon though, because Riddle won't let me stop. So if I do happen to be nom'd/voted for in this thing, I'll still do it. Someone just needs to tell me and I'll come in and set up a time. :)

Guaranteed next post: Ubers week.

Not right now.
He needs to get better at shoddy first
That could take a while.

Not an insult or anything. I'm just saying that depending on how much he plays and studies, that really could take a while.

He best be prepared to bust out the calcs and study teams/warstories if he wants to have any chance of being decent quickly though.

Well, he got 4-0'd for starters...

He didn't pack a fire type in NU, which is easily an idiotic idea.

He attempted to kill a Gligar with Bite from Persian...

He EQ'd a Charizard with Sandslash.

Yeah, I think that sums up a lot already.

fixed for ya =D

NU is a trash metagame though, seriously. Rocks up nerfs 3/4ths of the whole **** tier, and you have to try to spinblock with things like dusclops and sableye.

Quagsire >>> Slowking.

Water Absorb pointed against those Fires.
Has EQ and Waterfall STAB.
Has Recover.
Has Yawn and Toxic for Status conditions.

but slowking is a better mixed fire wall in NU than quagsire.

It also serves as a nice check for choiced espeon if you're careless with skuntank and it has the type resistances which allow it to better deal with medicham and other frequently scarfed fighters like primeape which can run right through NU. It has the strength to deal with other, generic special threats as well like specs glaceon assuming you don't walk straight into a signal beam/shadow ball.

Getting a hit in NU>spreading toxic unless you're subroost articuno. Not being ohko'ed by anything with hidden power grass>getting ***** by anything with any grass move ever. It has significant 100 base spatk which is pretty **** good in NU..

Except Slowking and Quagsire are hardly walling Fires, because you can always be TBolted or HP Grassed.

They're there to wall waters that try to kill your fires. Quagsire does that 100x better.

If by Week 7 the server is up and running and things are on it can we have it changed to CAP, and if not, week 9?

Well see the thing is if by Week 7 or even any other week our server is up and running, we'll only have 2 SmashCAPs to choose from. I guess it would affect it differently, but we'll see who things go before making that judgement.

I posted about it on the last page (assuming you're using default), if what you're saying involves me possibly doing the summary. And if you did see it, then I'm not entirely sure what this post means?

My bad, my head hurts and I've clearly overlooked that.

If so, is there anyone who would like the write the BOTW Week 1 summary? If no then I'll make my best attempt at doing so.

And I still need a volunteer for Week 4's summary. :)

Um...The Wrath of Koarin posted on my profile that he'd write the summary, and he posted earlier than you so if it's okay with you, Riddle.

Still no-one for Week 1's summary?

Bump.

So at the time of this post I'm dying of sickness, and I have a huge dinner coming up. I can't find Umbreon on AIM, so I have no idea how this is going to go down.

I apologize, guys.
